Adobe Photoshop has been the de facto standard for image editing since the early 1990s; so much so that ‘Photoshop' has long been a verb used to describe modifying photographs. In this course, you will learn how to work with Photoshop, beginning with how to create a new project, how to set up your workspace, and how to make selections using marquee tools. Next, you will explore the object selection tool, cropping and content-aware fill, and resampling images and resizing the canvas. Then you will discover how to transform objects and work with layers and adjustment layers. Finally, you will delve into how to work with shapes, how to use Photoshop filters, and how to save projects and export images in popular formats.
